Chapter 161: Chapter 161: Birth of the Profound Soul Bodhi Pill
"Are you Young Master Feng?"
Hearing such arrogant words from a young man, the two alchemists immediately guessed it was Gu Chenfeng.
Su Xiangyang nodded with a smile and said, "He is indeed Young Master Feng!"
"With Young Master Feng’s guidance, you both will definitely succeed!" Su Shisan said excitedly, full of confidence in Gu Chenfeng.
Hearing this,
the two elders quickly clasped their fists and thanked him, "Thank you, Young Master Feng."
They had long heard of Gu Chenfeng and had no doubts about him.
"No need to be polite," Gu Chenfeng said with a light smile. "It’s indeed somewhat difficult for a Fifth Grade Alchemist to refine a Sixth Grade Pill. The soul power and true fire are much weaker than those of a Sixth Grade Alchemist, so failure is a normal thing."
"However, if the refining method is correct, a Sixth Grade Pill can indeed be made, albeit with slightly lower quality."
Upon hearing this,
the two elders, who had been feeling discouraged, had hope ignited in their hearts and were looking forward to Gu Chenfeng’s guidance.
Gu Chenfeng continued to smile and said, "You’ve consumed a lot of soul power. First, restore your soul power and forget the earlier failure. We’ll try refining again soon."
"Yes, Young Master Feng." The two elders nodded.
An hour later,
the soul power of the two elders had fully recovered, and they were becoming even more hopeful.
In the Alchemy Room,
Gu Chenfeng said seriously, "For a Fifth Grade Alchemist to refine a Sixth Grade Pill, an enormous amount of soul power is needed. You both must hold on."
"Alright!" The two elders nodded, their expressions extremely serious.
With Gu Chenfeng’s guidance, they couldn’t afford to miss this rare opportunity, they had to give it their all.
This time, they had to fight with everything they had.
Yao Qinghe and the other two were also giving it their all.
Having the Alchemy Master Ancestor personally guide them was a dream come true for countless alchemists.
The two elders simultaneously infused their soul power and true fire into the alchemy furnace.
Gu Chenfeng instructed seriously, "Put all the ingredients in, fully stimulate the soul power, and gradually enhance the true fire."
"Alright!" The two elders immediately fully activated their soul power and infused it into the alchemy furnace.
Having done all this, just as the two elders were about to add the ingredients, they suddenly realized what had been said, and they were all shocked and confused.
"All the ingredients?" The two elders were dumbfounded.
Su Xiangyang and Su Qianshan were equally dumbfounded.
It was the first time they had heard of putting all the ingredients directly into the pill furnace in alchemy.
"Just do as Young Master Feng instructed," Su Shisan anxiously urged.
The two elders nodded dazedly, then followed the instructions and immediately put all the ingredients into the alchemy furnace, gradually enhancing the true fire.
Gu Chenfeng continued to instruct seriously, "When refining the Profound Soul Bodhi Pill, the most important thing is to preserve the Profound Soul Fruit and the Nine-Petaled Bodhi Grass. These two herbs are key to enhancing soul power. Insufficient essence of the herbs will also lead to failure."
"Focus the soul power on these two herbs, and continue to increase the fire intensity..."
Next,
Gu Chenfeng guided them step by step with the same patience as when he had previously guided the Ye Family’s Grand Elder in refining the Heaven and Earth Immortal Spirit Pill.
He carefully explained each step, such as when to extract the essence liquid and when to enhance the soul power, etc.
Finally,
the hard work paid off.
Under Gu Chenfeng’s patient guidance and the nearly exhausted soul power of the two elders, after more than an hour, the alchemy furnace finally emanated a strong wave of soul power.
Both alchemy furnaces simultaneously began emanating powerful soul power.
"What strong soul power!" The eyes of Yao Qinghe and the other two widened in shock, their gaze fixed on the alchemy furnace.
"The soul power’s wave!" Su Shisan was overjoyed, saying with immense excitement, "Dad, do you see it? It’s a success! It’s a success!"
"What a strong wave of soul power!" Su Xiangyang and the elders revealed excited smiles.
Once the Profound Soul Bodhi Pill is introduced, the Su Family’s strength will surely soar.
"Success! We’ve succeeded! This soul power is extremely powerful!" The two elders showed ecstatic smiles on their pale faces, as if they had reached heaven.
"Very good," Gu Chenfeng nodded with a smile. "But now is not the time to celebrate, there’s still the final step of nascent soul."
"At this step, we must not fail—give it everything you’ve got!" The two elders shouted eagerly, activating the remaining soul power within them.
The two elders’ hands moved quickly to form seals, and they shouted in unison, "Nascent Soul!"
With the shout, the alchemy furnace suddenly flashed with dazzling blue light, and even stronger soul power erupted out.
"What kind of soul power is this?" The two elders were instantly terrified, worried it might harm them.
"As expected of a Sixth Grade Pill! This soul power is too powerful!" Yi Tianjun exclaimed in extreme amazement, his eyes widened to the extreme.
"Two elders, it’s about to succeed!" Su Shisan was extremely excited.
"Two elders, you must hold on!" Su Xiangyang and the elders were both excited and nervous.
As time ticked by,
when the soul power in the alchemy furnace surged to its peak, a very powerful wave of soul power swept out, like a terrifying storm.
"It’s about to succeed!" Yao Qinghe’s eyes were glued to the alchemy furnace, not blinking once.
"Pill formation!" The two elders clapped their hands together and shouted simultaneously.
The pill furnace lid opened simultaneously, and two blue pills floated at the furnace’s mouth, with dazzling blue light enveloping the Alchemy Room, blindingly bright.
An immensely powerful soul power spread out from the Alchemy Room, nearly encompassing the entire Su Family.
"Finally succeeded..." The two elders, having exhausted all they had, finally succeeded in refining the Profound Soul Bodhi Pill.
Their soul power completely depleted, the two elders sat wearily on the ground, their faces as pale as paper, yet they displayed incredibly joyful smiles.
For a Fifth Grade Alchemist to refine a Sixth Grade Pill—it’s enough for them to boast about for a lifetime.
"Is this really the Profound Soul Bodhi Pill? We’ve truly succeeded!" Su Xiangyang and the elders were unbelievably ecstatic.
"What powerful Sixth Grade Pill! What strong soul power! Young Master Feng! We’ve succeeded!" Su Shisan yelled in exuberance.
"Is this the Six Grade Pill for enhancing soul power? The soul power it contains is incredibly strong; this is my first time seeing such pills." Yi Tianjun exclaimed, extremely shocked as he looked at the blue pills.
Nie Yuan nodded blankly, "This is also my first time seeing it."
Gu Chenfeng grabbed the pills from the air, placing them in the palm of his hand.
After a brief glance, Gu Chenfeng smiled and said, "The pill quality is average, and the lines are somewhat rough-shaped, but for a Fifth Grade Alchemist, this is already very good."
"Remember this feeling, remember this alchemy session, and next time, strive to refine higher quality pills. Then, take them yourself to break through to the Sixth Grade Realm."
"Thank you, Young Master Feng, for guidance." The two elders said, struggling to rise and bow in gratitude, their hearts filled with gratitude.
Su Shisan asked in confusion, "Young Master Feng, why was there no sign of heavenly phenomena for such powerful Sixth Grade Pills?"
Gu Chenfeng shrugged, "This is a pill for enhancing soul power, not a cultivation-boosting pill. Why would there be heavenly phenomena?"
However,
just as everyone was celebrating the successful refinement of the pills,
a Su Family member ran up hurriedly and reported, "Patriarch, it’s bad. The Shenxiao Pavilion has attacked, and they are already outside Imperial City!"
